I Am Knocking, Answer the Door

Word of the Day
In these days of visitation, Beloved, you must never be afraid or concerned. Don’t count yourself as unworthy, nor figure someone else will do it if you don’t. If all is left to what you consider to be Super-Christians, much will be left undone. I desire you and the fulfillment of all I call you to be in the earth. You are the one I have chosen for the task at hand. You and you alone can do the calling in front of you. I understand your weakness and I am mindful you are made of the dust of the earth.

Who would have ever thought dirt could make such treasure as you. Children can imagine such a thing. After all, they do make mud pies and all other sorts of delectable things out of a bit of dirt and water. Have the faith of a child and dare to believe I have made such a wonder with you.

In order for you to believe with all your heart, breezes of My presence have come and will continue to come to expose and blow away all chaff in this day, My beloved one. Yes, this is your day of visitation.

You have already come farther than you know. In order for you to see enough and enable you to come up here with Me I must not push or exert My wind against your back, but come around about and meet you face to face. Lift your face; lift your heart to the mountains from whence your help comes. Your help comes from Me. The wind of vision is blowing. It is moving to catch you up into the high places with Me.

It is a new day and those with their faces set like flint, turned into the wind will hear the voice of Holy Spirit saying, “Turn right, turn left.” The nuances of My presence and diversity of gifts have become and will continue to become manifest (Isaiah 50:7). Without revelation, you perish. Turn your face into My wind; I set vision before you this day. I am knocking. Will you answer regardless of all past experiences or lack of success? Will you walk among heavenly places with Me?

Yes, I am knocking. Will you answer and enter a new day, enter a new way of being and doing? Come up here with Me. All will be viewed from a whole new perspective. Come.

“Those whom I [dearly and tenderly] love, I tell their faults and convict and convince and reprove and chasten [I discipline and instruct them]. So be enthusiastic and in earnest and burning with zeal and repent [changing your mind and attitude]”

“Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears and listens to and heeds My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and will eat with him, and he [will eat] with Me” (Rev. 3:19-21 Amplified).

Prayer
Lord, You have heard my heart’s desire to walk in an atmosphere of vision and revelation and have answered my prayer. Every moment of every day brings me closer to You no matter what my thoughts or emotions may try and say. I live by faith and rest in the arms of Your unconditional love. I gladly give myself to the task You have ordained for me and I do it without reserve. Give me the courage to fight and the willingness to rest when necessary. Help me to understand the wisdom of having a vertical relationship with You in order to minister to others on the horizontal plane.

As I come to know and understand the beauty You formed with a bit of dust and dirt. I pray I am able to see others with the heart of a child—a heart with the ability to see wonder in their bit of dust and dirt. May I never feel superior in any way and always remember where I come from. I so desire to take the dust of other lives and like a child have vision for all You have created them to be. May my heart never be judgmental or critical in any way.

Lord, I set my face like flint to look full into Your wonderful face, to look fully into Your wonderful Word. I hide it in my heart and become like You. No one can or will do the purpose You created for me and me alone to fulfill. I will not be found asleep at the wheel. You are knocking and I am answering. I say yes and amen to all You say about me and all You ask me to do. Past failures and lack of success have no hold on me. This is a new day in You and I willing come. Amen

Reflect and Journal

1. Reflect on the joy of children making mud pies without concern of how dirty they get? The simple delight in the process/experience can be a valuable lesson. What does their joy over making something out of what others might not find of value say to you about your own life or others? How can this perspective redefine your definition of value?
2. He is blowing out the chaff and pulling you around with the wings of His wind to meet Him face to face. What is your response? The first thing coming to mind is usually where you really are. Think about this. If it is negative, deal with it and fall into His arms of grace. If it is positive, dive in and experience more.
3. What doors of your heart has He been knocking on? Is He asking you to let go? Is He asking you to embrace His call? He usually knocks on the next door in the process. What is yours?
4. What words has He spoken to you that are being stirred up in your heart? Write them down and reaffirm His faithfulness to bring them to pass.
5. This is your time, your day, and your hour of visitation. He is at your door, the door of your heart and thought life. Answer and record what He is speaking to you.
